As of the printing of this calendar, the Guantánamo Bay detention facility has housed 775 detainees (three of which have been convicted of various charges by military commissions) for a total of 3,190 days. The Imprisoned Calendar includes 3,190 blind-debossed (imprinted with no ink) hash marks, allowing its user to fill in each day as it passes to see firsthand what nearly nine years of time feels like. Each calendar was lovingly printed by local letterpress experts Mama’s Sauce on a Vandercook press at Flying Horse Editions. Crane Lettra Cotton 110 lb. cover stock results in a delicately intricate yet sturdy print. Numbers are limited to 200 prints, each of which is individually signed and numbered.
